La Luna (Bias Asa)
Chapter 71

Several times Luna was seen asking the waiter to refill her glass. And he didn't order food at all, the hunger just evaporated from his stomach. But the thirst, even ensnared his throat.

The woman only realized that she had spent hours in the restaurant. And it's late afternoon.

But Luna looked a little happy. Even though he was there, he just kept silent and stared at the artificial waterfall that was right next to the building from the restaurant.

Yeah, just through the window. Everything feels different. It is like entering another dimension. He found things he had never done in his entire life. Enjoying nature in tranquility.

Such an atmosphere was able to make Luna forget for a moment the problem. Especially the relationship that began to feel bland and various problems that befell his company.

But there is one that he cannot remove or save. And those are the memories of Stefan.

Stefan's kindness is not able to save Luna because of her past which is like continuing to hold her accountable. While his hatred in the past was also unable to remove Luna, especially until a child was born due to the actions of the man.

Luna breathed heavily. Why should the face of the man who is always present when he is depressed, or when he is happy.

It felt like the man was still there and watching his every move.

But every time Luna looked or deliberately turned her head around, there was no one there.

Luna threw away her thoughts. She was afraid that everything she thought about the man would make the weight of her new journey in heaven.

For a moment Luna could do it. And the next second the man's face returned and filled his brain.

Huh....

Luna is tight. Then the woman put her face on the table. Closing his eyes for a moment, looking for relief within his mind.

Feels heavy.

Why is it so hard to lose him, than to hate him.

"Sorry Madam, we're close. Is there anything else we can help you with?"

A waiter who came surprised Luna. The female servant was suddenly already beside him. Even Luna did not hear her footsteps.

"No, thank you." Luna neutralized her heartbeat that had been beating fast. "I'm the one who should be apologizing. I'll leave soon" said Luna who glanced for a moment at the bon placed on her desk by the maid. Then Luna took out the money and put it on top.

"Take the change." Luna commented a smile then got up and took her bag.

The woman left shortly before the restaurant closed. Yes, it was just a small restaurant located in an alley not far from the big road.

While stepping her legs, Luna still did not think about what she was doing.

Why did he choose this place after he had his first trial today.

The place where lately witnessed his cooperation with Stefan.

Even though they're not dating. Because they were there just for lunch while discussing many things. About the problem that surrounds Luna's company which eventually also drags Luna into it. And it can be guessed, their discussion always ends with a debate that never ends.

The two are not hard personalities, but Luna is almost always at odds with Stefan. And the man enjoyed the discussion between them.

Will such things really be memories that will be missed today?

Might as well.

Even Stefan's departure hasn't even been a week. And everything feels lonely, defeating Adam's disappearance from Luna's daily life.

What if it's a year, two years or years.

Is Luna still going to be. It's hard to erase her memories?

I don't know.

Only He determines everything. And of course, only He knows.

Adam bowed, as the police took him. The fate of a person is unpredictable.

He is an entrepreneur

the young son-in-law of the Efrain family in Canada is in police custody in Russia. With a small problem.

Foreigners without complete driving letters were speeding on the streets and accused of endangering the safety of others because the roads were public facilities.

Adam was still a lucky man. This event did not happen in his country. If not, it is certain that this news has become a soft food for news seekers.

Adam was sitting like a prisoner in a police station. A police chief is currently explaining things to him.

In essence, he could get out of that place if there was someone to vouch for him. But the problem is now, who is willingly willing to guarantee it? This is not a matter of money, but the guarantor must be a Russian citizen or a foreigner who has a recognized position, such as a public figure or famous people.

And damn, Adam doesn't know anybody here. Not even college friends are Russian citizens.

"Can't I just pay the fine, sir? I'll give you anything" Adam bargained with the cops.

"I'm sorry, many foreigners have violated it and ended up with fines. But they like to underestimate our agency, because in reality they repeat it again," refused the police was subtle.

It's finished.

"But sir, I_"

"I'll vouch for it."

A tall, slim woman wearing a face covering, suddenly stood next to Adam. The woman offered her business card and a thick brown envelope.

It's a pity the distance to the table where the envelope and the business card were placed far enough away. So that it is not read at all the identity printed on the square-shaped card.

The look on the face of the policeman facing Adam changed slightly. He smiled at the knot and immediately put the envelope and the small paper into his drawer.

"Please wait outside first. There are some documents that Mr. Walton must sign" the police officer said.

A few minutes later, the document signing process was completed. Adam was allowed to leave the police station along with his belongings that were used as collateral.

As soon as he walked out of the police chief's room, Adam approached the woman who had helped him earlier.

"Thank you for your help. I don't know what to do if there's no you." Adam stretched out his hand to shake the woman's hand.

His hand was not accepted.

"follow with me. My help is not free, Mr. Walton," said the woman as she left Adam. But his guards are still left with Adam.

The man finally followed the woman who saved him after his guards nodded in favor.

"Mrs ... Where have you been? I'm very worried." Aunt Jen was moved to Luna when the woman's car had just stopped in the parking lot of Ellard's headquarters.

"I'm just taking a short walk, Bi," Luna replied casually. Although his mind was full yet he could not possibly spill it now. Aunt Jen isn't as close to her as Aunt Ofelia.

"I've prepared the dinner, Madam." Aunt Jen offered to force the food she had cooked.

"I'm not really hungry, but okay, Bi. Make hot chocolate after me yeah, I'll clean myself first" Pinta Luna who did not have the heart to see the face of aunt Jen who was so hoping Luna enjoyed the food she made.

Her father's maid must have received a mandate from her father to make sure Luna ate properly despite her plight.

Luna went up to the room afterwards. But on the way his phone rang.

The woman hurriedly took out a square object from her bag. Apparently the finance department of Adam's office contacted.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Sorry, Mom. Mr. Adam asked for funds in large enough quantities to be transferred to his personal account. I've already told him if it should be Mr. Ellard's permission or yours. But he said he also had the right to take it."

"Did he tell me why?"

"Madam Lilyana is sick, and needs considerable funds."

"illness?" Luna glanced at his smile cynically. The woman thought for a moment, even Adam did not tell her if the mother was sick. "Do you know where he is?"

"He's in Russia. Sorry ma'am, this ..mm the problem is, the company money was also taken away by Miss Kylie in a large amount as well. So we really have to save on spending this month, ma'am."

"Kylie? When's that?" luna's breath is hunting. He doesn't know this problem at all.

"About a week ago, ma'am. We also lose a lot because we have to spend the cost to replace our goods that are rejected by our customers there.

"Other than that!?"

😍😍😍 thanks still faithful
